How does a 90-foot goddess look from the SKY? 😱
Flying through golden-hour clouds to reveal Thailand’s Guanyin statue up close — this scale is UNREAL. 🌅

The way the light hugs every detail… drone pilots, this is your sign to chase magic. 🚁✨

Sound on I couldn’t resist. 🎧⬆️

Crawl through mud, squeeze through rock, give a rat’s ass about the “what ifs”—this is what it takes to earn a view that humbles you. 🌊
Hang Sơn Đoòng didn’t care about my anxiety… and neither did I. As we scale the walls and we are in harness for three days. The river runs through the cave 200 m below. Every moment counts because you can’t make a mistake there’s no second chance.

The cave wins. You just show up, sweat, and let it remind you how small you really are.

Plot twist: The real curse was surviving this shoot. 😂
Part 2 of The Curse Effect BTS drops you into the storm—rigging rigs, cracking takes, and moments where even the script supervisor whispered ’what the who’s the translator?…’

Shoutout to the crew who turned Indo caffeine into genius. ☕️✨

Ever wondered how chaos turns into cinema? 🎬
Behind The Curse Effect lies a world of practical effects, cursed coffee runs, and scenes so intense even the crew held their breath.

This is Part 1: Where obsession meets execution.
Vote us up on IMDb 😉🙏🏼… but first, guess which moment had us rewiring the set at 3AM. ⚡️

Thailand from above? Game over. 🏆

This country’s temple structures hit different from the sky—every angle feels like a secret only birds and drones get to see.

✨ Pro tip: Apply for your drone permit before landing (trust me, it’s worth the paperwork).
⏳ The sunset temple walk-in shot? Pure luck + 3 hours of timing.

The last shot my drone was malfunctioning, but I managed to get some detail. I wanted you guys to see this place.

Sound on for the hum of propellers + temple serenity 🎶

If you believe in karma, you will appreciate this film. A true story .

The Curse Effect is a doc film about uncovering the mystery of unseen forces, taking you to forbidden lands and witnessing karma. Being a foreign outsider, I made this film for the Western world to understand how this culture deals with conflict spiritually. A #documentary film that defies all logic.

Dive deep into the heart of Indonesia’s Borneo jungle. This mind-twisting short documentary (29:30) delivers never-before-seen footage of one of the most feared tribes on earth, Suku Dayak. Enter a world of the tribe’s private way of life. Defying the odds as a foreign outsider, I miraculously earned the tribe’s trust, gaining access to film them like never before. At the tribe’s land. Uncovering the mystery of this unseen world.. #filmmaking #cinematography #sonycine #travelingram #alphacollective #documentaries #moviestowatch

Sony is brand that operates closely with its product users and listens to them. I appreciate being able to contribute towards features and the future of Sony Cinema cameras as well as Sony Alpha cameras and lenses. No other Brandon in the history of cameras has ever listened to the users as much as Sony has. They were the pioneers of working close with influencers and as a result, the cameras keep getting better and better. The features we ask for usually end up in the Camera in the next version. And realizing the need for cinematic visuals their prime lens lineup just keeps getting better and better. #sonyalpha #sony #alphacollective #sonycinema

Here’s a waterfall moment in Indonesia. I captured with my Sony 100 to 400 GM lens. I never leave home without this lens. The spray was so much I had to back up and get this. The key to shooting any waterfall is having a Zoom lens, depending on how much spray. There was so much spray I was wiping this lens constantly between shots.#sonyalpha #alphacollective #travelgram #wonderfulindonesia #discovery #filmmakinglife

Trailer 3 for the curse effect movie. It’s a documentary film where I managed to gain access to a forbidden place and a forbidden tribe to document and film about voodoo magic, the tribes way of life and sacred rituals. Literally impossible as a foreign outsider. Especially filming them. This is a film about karma. I told the story for the Western world so the Western world could see how other cultures deal with conflict.

Bangkok Thailand always provides some of the best aerials I’ve seen yet. Flying over top of these temples and looking at the symmetrical architecture is such a rush. The second shot is Wat Samphran is a small temple located 40 km from Bangkok, in Nakhon Pathom province, whose main attraction is a massive dragon statue that looks like Shen Long from Dragon Ball, and is tangled like a vine around a 17-story tower. It is such a rush to see it from above, but the ground shots are equally incredible. Definitely worth a visit. #bangkok #bangkok🇹🇭 #bangkokthailand #thailandtravel #thailandtrip #vacationmode

When people ask why ~~~ The Curse Effect has wrapped the film Festival circuit it’s now streaming @fawesome_tv (no subscription needed). It’s an important message about karma and the way we treat each other and anyone that watches the film will see karma unfolding in front of their eyes. I was able to do something I never thought I could do in order to film it. I beat all the odds to be able to get the footage a tribe and film about something that is very close and personal to the tribe they don’t allow anyone especially a foreign outsider to film about this topic that in itself is a miracle for me to be able to film this documentary. The runtime is 29:30 🍿🎬 share your thoughts, ideas, questions in the comments.I hope this film plants a seed with a common goal to treat each other better. # alphacollective #sonyalpha #documentary #sonycine #sony #discovery #streaming #sandisk #hoyatough #polarpro

How many Instagram photo opp locations can you spot in this drone shot? I slowed it down a little so you can take a good look Cinematic drone up close and personal. Thailand Blue Temple located in Chiang Rai, Thailand. The Chiang Rai Blue Temple is officially named Wat Rong Suea Ten, which translates to “Temple of the Dancing Tiger.” ~~ The blue temple is known for its exquisite detail interior and exterior. The only way to see this properly is flying the drone above. #bluetemple #bluetemplechiangrai #thailand #thailand🇹🇭 #thailandtravel

Bangkok Thailand is undefeated for rooftops. The artistic texture from. Building to building makes Bangkok my top pic for drone art. #bangkokthailand #bangkok #thailand #dronevideo #aerial #bangkokstuff

Tumpak Sewu Indonesia ~ quick shot to warm everyone up in the winter cold. #tumpaksewu #indonesia #alphacollective #travelphotography #travelgram #discoverearth #travelstoke

I droned another Hidden temple of Bangkok, Thailand. This Bangkok gem is secluded in its origins. You can get to it by foot or aerial above although I did both. I wanted to do a one take smooth look at the whole entire compound. The temples in Bangkok and all of Thailand are incredible. Especially the ones that are secluded that you never would think they would exist, but they do you just have to dig a little. #bangkok #bangkok🇹🇭 #thailandtravel #adayinthailand #bangkokthailand #bangkokstuff #dronelife #amazingthailand #djipro #bhcreators

Going retro Square version. I left these images the natural color I didn’t reduce saturation or change much in the edit Gives you an idea how this color science produces on its own. So vibrant just the way my eyes were seeing it these are the last shots from the a1 II. Slightly edited. The new flagship A1 II allows for quick workflow. If you need fast output for social media, the JPEG‘s on this camera or incredibly impressive even with that any editing. Allowing you to adjust the RAW images later in post.
